WHY BROADWICK?

Hello Broadwick Live Team,

I am excited to express my enthusiasm for the opportunity to work with Broadwick Live as a Music Team Assistant. I find Broadwick Live to be a phenomenal leader in the UK's event scene, and your influence extends even beyond the UK, especially with the ever so exciting growing presence in New York and the impressive tour at Off Sonar this summer.

Being part of Broadwick Live means being part of UK dance history. The organisation is at the forefront of a new wave of club culture, redefining nightlife and live music experiences. Your production and sound quality are unparalleled, setting the stage for artists to express themselves fully and for audiences to experience groundbreaking music.

You facilitate incredible lineups, making it a real hub for artists to showcase their talent within the UK and beyond. You have brought dance music into the mainstream, allowing it to reach audiences who might not have been exposed to it otherwise. This inclusivity and reach are vital in spreading the culture of dance music, something I personally cherish.

For me, dance music is about freedom and acceptance. It’s about bringing people together in one of the most beautiful, natural ways possible. You asked me ‘why us’ and it's because you embody this spirit, creating spaces where everyone can come together and celebrate music and life. Joining Broadwick Live would not only be a professional honor but also a personal passion fulfilled.

I am eager to contribute to this incredible journey and be part of the team that continues to shape the future of music and events in the UK and beyond. I’d like to make my mark on dance culture, and I believe that Broadwick Live is the perfect place for me to do so.

Levitate London

My initial venture gave me a deep understanding of the melodic scene. During the depths of COVID, I recognized the online streaming potential of Monkey Safari’s hit “Safe” and brought them to the UK for a sold-out headline show at The Orange Yard in 2022 after the lockdown had ended. I then continued to sell high volumes of tickets for various events and grew the brand, successfully diversifying into the Afro house scene with shows featuring Pablo Fierro and Yulia Niko.

E1

As the Junior Booker at E1, I expanded my knowledge of the electronic dance spectrum, particularly within the Techno/Hard Techno scene. I learned the intricacies of running a nightclub in the competitive London market, booking talent from various scenes and collaborating closely with the marketing team to ensure successful shows. Over two years, I booked international names such as I Hate Models, Dimitri From Paris, Sasha, Apollonia, and many more. Working with the operations team, I ensured the smooth weekly running of the club, prioritizing customer safety and well-being while forming healthy relationships and ensuring client satisfaction.

Arcade Talent Agency

At Arcade Talent Agency, I gained a deeper understanding of the classic house and disco scene. Working with industry legends showed me that commitment and persistence are key to maintaining a loyal following.

I have a keen eye for emerging talent, For instance, I booked DJ Daddy Trance and Kirollus at E1 before their current huge status. I constantly research new music, seeking the highest quality music and most exciting artists. In particular, within the Melodic scene, In the melodic scene, I believe Hardt Antoine, with his Innervisions-style tracks, represents the future. Antoine is a great act to get on board and harness before he explodes.

I believe promoting new talent in the local scene is essential as electronic dance music thrives on community.

Networking

Networking is a crucial part of my work ethic. I attend all events and meetups I can, including IMS, ADE, Off Sonar, and various events throughout London. I regularly connect with agents, labels, and DJs, finding that most of my deals and progress come through networking rather than just emails. My contacts with various agents enable me to negotiate fair deals for artists, whose fees are ever-increasing. Maintaining healthy relationships with agents and managers is crucial for securing fair deals.

Organisational skills

I excel in advancing and executing multiple events weekly. I handle contracts, including straight-up deals and versus deals, and can spot potential issues before they occur, ensuring financial safety and event success.

My experience with logistics and online booking systems like Gigwell and Book Me Tender enhances my ability to organize logistics and create prompt contracts and invoices.

I also formulate line-ups that make financial sense, create budgets for shows, and understand UK and international tax systems, including handling withholding taxes and other regulations (International tax forms, visas, COS’ etc.)

Team Player

In addition to booking, I have a strong background in marketing and always strive to learn and master every aspect of the industry. I work on outside projects, including digital advertising for Loft in Manchester and Pure Honey in London. My music production background adds another layer to my skill set, allowing me to assist other departments as needed. As well as this I have proficiency in Premiere Pro and Adobe Photoshop; which enables me to support any marketing team effectively.

Not Just Electronic Music

I also have a deep knowledge of other genres. A previous example of this was for the False Idols showcase, when you booked The Sugababes. Thus attracting the masses, as well as having an intricate electronic lineup for dedicated electronic fans.

I've worked with Italian hip-hop sensation Salmo, successfully selling out two nights at E1, bringing a new demographic to the venue. Booking an act like Eminem for Drumsheds in 2025 would be spectacular, especially with his reappearance in 2024 and proven global ticket sales.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to Broadwick Live.

Best regards,
Tris Rothschild
